Luke 9:46 (NIV) An argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest.

1. Love suffers when I use my means to measure God’s love for me. 

Luke 9:47-48 (NIV) Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and had him stand beside him.  Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.”

Luke 9:52-53 (NIV) And he sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan village to get things ready for him, but the people there did not welcome him, because he was heading for Jerusalem. 

3. Love suffers when my pride becomes an obstacle on the path.  4. The most dangerous kind of religion is cloaked in the veil of self-righteousness.

1 John 3:1b-2a (NIV) And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, 

7. What God has poured out on me is fixed in my past. 8. My love from Him is a present love that I am to give freely.
